The last bit of colour before winter
Four days ago, on 12 October 2014, I had spent a few hours east of the city, driving the backroads, looking for barns and anything else to photograph. Heading back to Calgary, I took a wrong turn just outside the city and ended up on Deerfoot Trail heading south instead of 22X going west. All I could do was keep driving on this major highway until I came to somewhere famiiiar where I could turn around. This happened to be The Saskatoon Farm. I was just in time to have a meal in their restaurant before heading home - I love their Quiche.
This interesting place is maybe a 20-minute drive SE from the southern edge of Calgary. You can collect your own Saskatoon berries in season, look around their outside green houses, and their inside gift shop full of unusual things, and buy special baking, jams, teas and so on. They also have a restaurant that offers great food. This flower was one of the very few remaining blooms. Seems a long, long time till next spring : ( Not sure is this is Striped Mallow / Malva sylvestris, or maybe a different Malva?
